#137 | Blessings Behind Your Pain

from Alter Life Hosted by Dr. Benjamin Alter

We all experience pain in our lives. It's a built in mechanism to keep us safe and support our body in healing. In this comprehensive conversation we go in depth to talk about the anatomy of the pain response, getting deep into the topic of chronic pain, and how to take the edge off naturally. One concept brought forward is emotional pain or psychological tension manifesting in the physical body. While pain is not all in your head, it can be extremely hopeful to consider that the genesis of pain may be beyond the physical. Some highlights include... Just how acute pain actually supports the body in healing Why pain and mood often go hand in hand The distinction between acute and chronic pain How pain meds work and why they may inhibit your healing The implications of physical pain being more socially acceptable than emotional pain How thought magnifies, and maybe even creates, pain Ways to connect with your guiding wisdom in the midst of pain You may also be interested in these episodes..
